Let’s talk about your day
I know how special a wedding day is: the day your story becomes official, when laughter and emotion blend together and every moment deserves to be kept forever.
I am a wedding photographer based in Cluj-Napoca, Transylvania, and my mission is simple: to be there for you and capture everything just the way you wanted it, from your mother’s tear of joy to your first dance under the spotlights.
It is not only about taking pictures at the ceremony and the party. It is about catching the stolen smiles, the look between the two of you, the energy of your guests and all the small details you planned with so much love.
Besides weddings, I also photograph civil ceremonies, elopements and christenings. See the civil wedding packages →
How I document a wedding
Learn how I capture both the planned moments and the spontaneous ones, how I blend into the event to get natural and authentic photographs, and what you can expect from professional wedding photography.
Planned moments
The ceremony, the photo session, the cake, the first dance: every frame you prepared so carefully, documented with precision.
Spontaneous moments
A mother’s tear, the guests’ laughter, the look between the two of you. I blend into the event and catch them as they happen.
Natural, authentic photographs
Your real story, with honest emotion, that you can relive every time you look at the images.

Experience
After photographing more than 190 weddings, I have seen almost every situation there is. Nothing on your day will catch me off guard, so I can capture the important moments whatever the circumstances.

Versatility
I have photographed weddings on beaches, in grand ballrooms, in Transylvanian castles and on mountaintops. Every wedding has its own character and its own challenges, so I work with every kind of light and setting, from a soft sunset ceremony to the elegance of a castle hall.

Wedding photographer in Cluj-Napoca, Transylvania and across Romania
- Cluj-NapocaThis is where I live and where I have photographed the most weddings: La Forêt, Wild Hills, Issa Resort in Turda. I know the light of each venue at every hour of the day, so I know in advance where we will take the portraits.
- Târgu MureșThe city where I grew up. I often work at The Island, Haller Castle in Ogra, Castle Events in Gornești and Hotel Privo, and I photograph civil weddings in the Medieval Citadel, home of the city’s wedding hall.
- BrașovWeddings in Brașov, Poiana Brașov and the surrounding counties: couple sessions at mountain cabins, in snow or in the forest, and Covasna venues such as Zabola Estate and Panorama Events in Sfântu Gheorghe.
- SibiuEstates with glasshouses and gardens, like Orlandea Estate, and lakeside weddings at Symphony by the Lake. For civil ceremonies, the wedding hall on Piața Mică is a very good backdrop for photographs.
- SighișoaraThe medieval citadel for the photo session and wedding venues nearby, between the hills, such as Valea Verde Retreat and the estates around Daneș. A wedding day that suits a storybook setting.
- BucharestI travel to the capital and to Ilfov county too: from Iris Orangerie to Bokaa on the shore of Lake Buftea, half an hour from the city. For Bucharest weddings I plan the evening light well in advance.

Frequently asked questions
What couples ask me most before they book their date.
Wedding packages start from 1849 EUR and include an online gallery of professionally edited photographs. Civil wedding packages start from 349 EUR. You will receive a personalised offer within 2 hours of getting in touch.
Yes. Whether you marry in the authentic setting of Transylvania or somewhere with European charm, I am ready to travel with you. See my travel destinations.
Always. Over the years I have learned that any camera can fail at any moment, so I carry backups to make sure nothing stands in the way of capturing the special moments.
I usually work alone, for a discreet and personal presence. If you would like a second photographer for more angles or extended coverage, I can collaborate with wedding photographers I have worked with before.
Yes. Besides weddings, I photograph civil weddings, small elopement-style ceremonies and christenings, in Romania and abroad.
Most couples book me 9–16 months before the wedding. Holiday dates and busy weekends are reserved even earlier. I only accept 15 to 20 weddings a year, then I close bookings for that year.
Of course. I believe in transparency, and it is important that you see a complete story. I am happy to share entire galleries from past weddings.
I usually deliver the final edited photographs within 2–6 weeks of the wedding day, and I always send a preview within a day or two.
Documentary: I combine photojournalism and candid moments with portraits, family photographs and detail shots. I do not limit myself to one type of photography; I like to be creative and bring out the beauty that is already there.
